Now technology blog My Drivers has got hold of Xiaomi's official MiStore screen-shot, showing Redmi Note 2 (32GB) with a price-tag of ¥799 (around $128/€118/₹8,210).

Another Chinese e-commerce site JD too has opened a dedicated Redmi Note 2 page revealing that the pre-order for Xiaomi's budget phablet will go live on 16 August.

These reports have apparently made many believe that Xiaomi might unveil Redmi Note 2 soon, probably next week on 13 August, wherein the company has already confirmed the launch of new Android skin MIUI v7.0 for its smart devices.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 is expected to come in two variants -- one with 64-bit class MediaTek (MT6795) Helio X10 Octa-core processor and another with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 615 Octa-core CPU. Rest of the features are said to be remain same.

It will a sport a 5.5-inch full HD display, 2GB RAM, 16GB/32GB storage, 13mp camera with LED flash on the rear-side and a 5mp snapper on the front.
